That's only if you dig deeper, you will find that the phenomenal apolitical Nikiforov in sharp contrast to its actual activities in Tatarstan inflate separatist tendencies. Hardly it has been associated with top-level domain if the organization is not the first activity Nikiforov Kazan in the corridors of power. tat.

Few people know that the United States failed to achieve the possibility of registering their own top-level domain in the past year for legal entities and state authorities. Along with him is embodied in the life and ECLID, ie The European program of cultural and linguistic domains. The very first virtual independence Catalans received. Domain. cat used since 2005, and 11 million Catalans happy to use it. Seven years have passed since the appearance of his own domain, and there you are - we want economic independence from Madrid, Barcelona said. Now it is not difficult to guess where it is still going to be born a new domain - of course, in preparing to hold another referendum for the independence of Scotland (scot.), Basque Country (eus.), Wales (cym.), Galicia (gal.).

Now here Tatarstan can get your domain name in 2013, said Vorobyov (You can turn on the countdown timer before the collapse of Russia).

In this case, a very confused by the fact that Nikiforov took the post of his deputy is not only the founder jointly with the Americans, but also to graduates of "the most pro-American institution" the NES, the former rector of which Sergei Guriev fled to Paris after he was suspected of receiving money on YUKOS structures.

It all started with the fact that the Ministry of Communications has requested 18 billion rubles from the budget for the import substitution software.

Of course, it is to develop the Russian software - there's nothing wrong. But steal money allocated for it - this is a clear crime.

The fact that the draft Nikiforov by Russian developer support is not so smooth, it became clear after the minister presented the public their concept for further development of this idea.

The fact is that the distribution of these 18 billion rubles. (on a plan of the minister) is not itself the Ministry of Communications (as usually happens in such cases), but some independent non-profit organization, the founders of which is unknown.

Experts believe that the emerging "ANO collective Software Development" (ANO KRPO) - this is a common framework for the mediation of the budget money, through which can be carried out safely, "cut", and while officials will not take any responsibility. It seems very interesting and the fact that the statute provides for ANO business, but does not explain how it will continue to use the proceeds received.

So, "rejected" project Nikolai Nikiforov, Minister of Economic Development Minister Alexei Ulyukayev did obviously useful for budget business - saved from "stripping" as much as 18 billion rubles.
